Contributing sentiments towards policy:

68% : In his Sept. 10 debate with Harris, Trump said that her "vice presidential pick says abortion in the ninth month is absolutely fine.""He also says execution after birth -- it's execution, no longer abortion, because the baby is born -- is OK," Trump said.
47% : "In August, the Inspector General's Office of the Department of Homeland Security announced that 320,000 migrant children could not be located within the U.S.Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency known as ICE, "must take immediate action to ensure the safety of [unaccompanied migrant children] residing in the United States," the report says.
44% : No 'Major Conflict' Began Under Trump"When was the last time -- I'm 40 years old -- when was the last time that an American president didn't have a major conflict break out?"
36% : Reuters fact-checked a similar claim -- that Trump was the only president in modern American history not to start a new war.
34% : "Although climate change theoretically may affect hurricanes, the concrete claim that burning fossil fuels has made hurricanes worse doesn't measure up.
34% : Yet when factoring in military operations such as the U.S. intervention in Libya under Obama, troops sent to Haiti and the Balkans under Clinton, and Reagan's deployment of troops in Lebanon and Grenada, Trump becomes the only president in the past 40 years not to preside over a new intervention -- considering Trump's strike on military targets in Syria as an extension of a conflict that began under Obama.
32% : 'Rich as Hell' Got a Tax CutWalz repeated Democrats' assertion that the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which Trump signed into law, benefited only the wealthy.
22% : Trump also has repeatedly stated that he has not read "Mandate for Leadership" and has not endorsed Project 2025.
17% : Walz: Measure He Signed Doesn't Allow Abortion in Ninth MonthWalz said the abortion bill he signed into law in Minnesota doesn't allow abortion up to birth, as Trump has said.
